The Province of Sardinia and Corsica (Latin: Provincia Sardinia et Corsica) was an ancient Roman province, that was encompassing Mediterranean islands of Sardinia and Corsica. It was created after the Roman conquest of the islands during the First Punic War (264–241 BC), and existed up to the administrative reforms of Augustus in the 6 AD, when it was split in two separate provinces, Sardinia and Corsica. Both provinces continued to exist until Vandal conquest in the 5th century.
